you can use 11. you just have to use bluestreak instead of blitzcrieg for exporting

you dont need tool++
just use classic tool with cmd and for JMS extractor dl it on halomaps.org (bleu streak extractor) you have to convert .max file to .jms with bleu streak script in my part 3ds max 8 it's perfect in 9 10 11 the "flip" fonction dont work correctly Edited by DavixXx on May 10, 2010 at 09:03 PM |

Ok, im actually trying to make vehicles/weapons/bipeds and stuff like that but when i tell Bluestreak to export the model it says Warning: there was no geometry to export. and when i tell tool or tool++ to create a model out of it, it says
### Newshee.jms ### ERROR there must be at least one region. ### ERROR failed to import geometry 'Newshee.jms'. Couldn't read map file './toolbeta.map' |

make a new box, name it frame, select the level, use the link tool, and drag the level to the frame (linking it)
